Week 10




The first picture is a picture of my bookends from grade 8. This is weird because I received it on November 14th, 2007 and it was supposed to be given to me two years ago. This award is awarded to any student that received I think 200 or 250 house points. I didn’t know I got this many, but it’s always nice to receive an award.

This second picture is my English project that has 5 parts to it. We got it on November 7th and its due on November 23rd. It’s a somewhat big project that needs time to be done. I’m only done the first part and I still have to write 4 more. :S

Week 9




This first picture is Remembrance Day Assembly. The assembly was roughly an hour long. There were some guess speakers, some bands, and some speeches made. This assembly happens every time close to November 11 because on November 11th soldiers fought to try and conquer Juno beaches. This has to be a very touching moment for all veterans and for people that remember that day.

This second picture is my squash equipment. I’m trying out for the squash team and I don’t even play squash. This is kind of funny because I’m playing some good players, but the rest are people that don’t even play like me, but if I don’t make the team I decided to play squash out of school anyways. It’s a fun sport and really intense. I just hope I make the team.

Week 8



This first picture is the revolution poster. It took place on November 2. It was a huge success because tons of people came out. They played all sorts of music from: jazz to reggae to classic rock. All the bands were very good and they should be congratulated!!

This second picture is my math quizzes and assignment. It shows that if you work hard you can get the mark you want. I find this class to be fairly easy and I’m thinking of doing enriched math next year. I hope I do well if I do!!

Week 7



This first picture is a science DVD that Warren and Kevin helped make for our science ecosystem. For this project we went down to Crescent’s ecosystem and we took pictures of 20m by 5m area. We had to record all the species we saw and all the plants and trees we saw. This was a fun project, but my group spent a lot of hours working on this DVD and booklet. I hope we get a good mark!!!!

This second picture is the BSS dance on Friday the 26th. You had to wear a costume to go. It was fun to see all my friends at the dance because I haven’t seen them since I took history in the summer with them.

Week 6



The first picture is a picture of my guitar. I had a guitar lesson on Saturday and we played Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson. Jack Johnson is a very talented guitarist and it’s amazing that I can play some songs by him. One day I want to be as good as guitar as him!!!

The second picture is my accounting textbook. I have a big test on Monday and I’ve been studying for such a long time. I’m determined to get good on this test. Also, this textbook is around 750 pages and it’s amazing by the end of the year I would know everything on all those pages.

Photographic Formative 2 Texture



Texture is defined as: if you could touch the surface of the photograph how would it feel?? How do the objects in the picture look like they would feel??

If you would touch this photograph in person it would feel a bit bumpy and rigid. I used a direct approach to take this shot of the keyboard. I thought it would just show the main attraction fast and short. In the picture there is a lot of repetitiion because each key has the same look, but their's just different letters, numbers, and signs on each one.

Week 5





The first picture was taken on Tuesday the 9th. It was when our grade went to Sunnybrook for the drug and alcohol talk. We talked people’s recovery from drunk driving or being victims of drunk driven and we also got a tour of some different wings.


The second picture is all of my cough medicine I’ve been using the whole week. I’ve been using it because I had a soar throat and I’ve been trying to get rid of it.

Week 4



The first picture was taken on “wear pink day” for breast cancer. This was taken in Media Arts class and it shows everyone wearing pink. This shows that everyone in our class contributed money to try and find a curer for breast cancer.

I took this second picture of me and my friends walking to the movies on Friday the 5th. We got out of school at 1:15 because it was thanksgiving weekend. That day was also breast cancer day and we all had to wear pink. I’m looking forward for a weekend of non-stop eating turkey and mash potatoes.

Summative Unit One



A. I think it is indexical because it directly suggests meaning it associates with the thing it represents. I picked these pictures because they symbolized poverty through the clothes there wearing and the place there living in.

B. I think the most powerful picutre is the family in the background because it shows how there poor and how they need help. It's also a powerful picture because it's the biggest picture and there all sad.

Week 3



I took this first picture of everyone at our lockers because it was house day and we were all tired and wanting to go home. Also, this is the first time we got lockers not near other grades. This is good because there aren’t little kids running around us or grads plowing through us.
The second picture was taken on house day. It shows people playing basketball and they’re showing their house spirits. House day was fun because we were with the whole school in groups. Also, everyone was very enthusiastic about today and everyone had a great time. ps. Cartier is the best :P

Week 1




This photo is the new iMacs and the yearbook sign up sheet. I took this photo of the iMacs because they are the new ones and they are better than the ones last year. I took the photo of the yearbook sign up sheet becuase i signed up for the yearbook and i'm guessing it's going to be a lot of fun.
